I'm not sure whats going on here but this was just a weird experience for me. Solani 633 and McClellands 2015 are in my regular rotation. This is the first VA/Perique I've ever smoked that does not taste like one. Perhaps I just got a bad tine but I wont be purchasing another...ever.

"Black Parrot" must certainly be for the confirmed V&P aficionado. But for me, the fruity, Perique-y taste is just several truckloads more than I can deal with. I can't imagine this is a V&P "for the huddled masses" but rather, one for the True & Annointed Believers, and that plus my own disinterest prompts me to rate the Parrot at just 2 stars and no more.
